Sister. Do you remember when the country was going crazy over
00:02
toilet paper and other everyday items during COVID?
00:06
I remember that we were fighting for our lives at supermarkets.
00:10
Pretty sure I shoved a couple people at Ralph's bro.
00:14
Like you're getting intense.
00:16
You're one of those,
00:18
not one of those when things are scarce,
00:20
you start to do crazy stuff.
00:23
Baby wipes, the baby wipes to the babies.
00:26
Can you imagine the babies without baby wipes?
00:28
Yeah, because the toilet paper was out.
00:30
So the baby wipes were out too.
00:32
I'm like, well sister get ready because you might be doing
00:35
some more shoving. 45,000 port workers from New England to Texas
00:41
went on strike just after midnight on Tuesday.
00:44
Rallying for higher pay and more job security.
00:48
Does that affect us?
00:50
I'm gonna get to that and don't be scared.
00:52
It's ok. Deep breaths.
00:54
No shoving yet. But look,
00:56
the IL A is demanding wage hikes and a complete ban on
00:59
the use of automated cranes,
01:01
gates and container moving trucks and unloading or loading freight.
01:05
So there's a strike going on crazy.
01:08
Those robots, brother machines don't feed families and this is a
01:12
really big deal, like horrible timing too.
01:16
Like the holidays are right around the corner.
01:19
I already got an email saying my packages are probably going to
01:23
I mean, shit's gonna hit the fan because President Biden said
01:26
he wouldn't interfere with a strike even though there's a law that
01:29
manufacturers are urging him to invoke called the Taft Hartley Act which
01:34
authorizes the president to seek a court order for an 80 day
01:37
cooling off period for companies and unions to try and resolve their
01:40
differences. So, so he's like,
01:43
he's like, but you know what's crazy is that like,
01:48
I kind of see this already happening because my local like Instagram
01:52
page that posts all the cheese me.
01:53
They're like, hey guys,
01:54
look, Costco's out of toilet paper now.
01:58
shit, they need to figure this out ASAP because they keep
02:04
our country like running,
02:05
you know, and nobody wants to go back to fighting at
02:08
Costco. No, I don't like,
02:10
I don't want to throw hands with some lady for like,
02:13
I'm not going to lie though like a little intense Costco trip
02:15
It's already a little madness so much going on and right
02:19
there in the aisles,
02:20
they're just looking and it's like,
02:21
dude freaking move out the way my dad,
02:23
my dad just, that's crazy.
02:26
There's too many, there's already tension at Costco brother.
02:29
I need more attention.
02:30
But anyways pay them guys pay them.
